Not sure why the release date was pushed back. I got an email from RightStuf this morning saying that my Season 2 blu-ray was shipped and it will be here on Monday (one day before the original release date).

True, but it seems superfluous to have the opening recaps AND recaps within the episode, plus, DBZ isn't plot heavy. I agree with you. I would rather it not be there, but it doesn't bother as much as some of the other filler because I can kind of see a reason for it. On the other hand, Bulma chasin...

The filler I can really do without is the moments where it recaps what happened only a few episodes ago. There are several of those in the 30 Freeza fight episodes. I dont' mind recaps like when Roshi was telling Marron about the Red Ribbon Army, but it's annoying when it retells recent material. T...

Purchased the two "Z" Dragon Boxes to finish my collection of all five original boxes. I also got my order in the mail of the March 2014 Saikyo Jump with the Episode of Bardock Kanzenban and the first tankoubon of Dragon Ball SD.

Good stuff! I just ordered the two "Z" boxes the other day and am waiting for them to arrive. When they get here I will be the proud owner of all five Dragon Boxes as well!

I just got my order of the Kanzenban in the mail. I also ordered the March 2014 issue of Saikyo Jump, Dragon Ball Kai: Ultimate Butouden for the DS, and preordered the first volume of Dragon Ball SD. On a slightly Dragon Ball related note, I also ordered the first volume of Journey to the West.

Just got my order of the Kanzenban in the mail today!

Today's dumbed down kids shows wont be watched. You're not gonna allow him watch TV shows that are on TV now? That's really mean... and weird. I don't think it's mean or weird. Most of the shows directed at children have reached ridiculous levels of stupidity. Do these creators really think that al...

Volumes 1-34 of the Japanese Kanzenban will be added to this soon; I just ordered them this morning. I'll post a picture when they arrive. http://i1191.photobucket.com/alb...

Z had too much blood, Kai had to little, but seeing as the manga only has abit of blood, id have to give it to Kai for being the closer representation. Removing some blood doesn't bother me, but did they really have to make the wounds look like bruises? They could of taken out the blood and still l...

If you do decide to sell individual volumes I would gladly buy DBZ volumes 6 & 9. Those are the only two I am missing. Let me know!

I wouldn't have done them at all. I would've ended Dragon Ball after the 23rd tenkaichi so as to spare it from such a drastic decrease in quality. While pretty much all of us here would still like the series, I have a feeling that a lot of people, myself included, wouldn't hold it in such high rega...

so are these uncut ? Only partly. Popo's lips are censored, the translation is still the same as the vizbigs, though I think the font was changed. Regarding nudity and violence, I'm not sure. From what I've seen after looking through the first volume, Popo's lips appear to be the only censoring I'v...

Received the Hong Kong Blu-ray release of Battle of Gods in the mail today. The subtitles aren't perfect by any means (quite a few spelling errors), but it's nice to be able to watch an official subtitled release.

So I came across an interesting comment the other day that compared DBZ to riding a small bike with training wheels. The comment said that being an adult who's a big fan of DBZ is like being an adult who rides small bikes with training wheels around with elementary children. According to him, it is...

I own all seven FUNi Dragon Boxes as well as Kai. When I watch in Japanese I prefer to watch original Z. I watch Kai for a great English dub.

Really? You have a problem with the sound effects being translated? Their purpose is to tell the reader what the things sound like... You might as well argue that the Japanese text is also part of the art. I don't have any problem with them translating the sound effects, but I have to agree with B ...

I can live if Popo's lips are the only things edited; especially since this is the first time ever they've never screwed with the sound effects, which to me are a part of the art itself. Give me my tits and my dicks and my guns. You'll be happy to know that the dicks, at least, are quite present.

I know that censoring is never good, but are Mr.Popo's lips and an old translation enough to be the reason why someone doesn't buy a release? I mean, considering how releases work, do you really expect a new translation anytime soon and a visually uncut version? I'm totally against censoring in ani...

While I like King Cold and Coola, they do make Freeza seem rather insignificant. I'm ambivalent about their inclusion to the story, canon or non-canon. I wouldn't say they made Freeza insignificant at all. If anything they always made him more interesting to me. To think that there is an entire cla...
